Entropy from TPM of Fedora 23?
by D. Hugh Redelmeier 17 May '16

17 May '16

I have a server that I want to use to test Libreswan VPN software. This requires a lot of entropy (for random number generation). Unfortunately, the box, a Dell, has a processor with no RdRand instruction. But it does have a TPM 1.2 module, and that is supposed to be able to generate entropy. I don't know how to get the TPM to feed entropy to the Linux kernel RNG. Is there a cookbook explaining how to do this? I installed Trousers to handle the TPM device. That provides "tcsd" the daemon that manages "Trusted Computing resources" (including TPM). I installed tpm_tools. I initialized the TPM with tpm_takeownership -y -z rngd is the daemon that is supposed to feed hardware entropy to the kernel RNG. It is part of the rng-tools package. I would have thought that enabling the TPM would allow rngd to harvest entropy from the TPM. That does not seem to be the case. rngd can open /dev/tpm0 but cannot read from it. (This isn't obvious since rngd's diagnostics are not very specific.) I think that the problem is that only one thing is allowed to open the TPM at once, and that one thing is currently something else. Probably tcsd. Here's a closed bugzilla against RHEL7 that seems relevant: <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=921122> My problem certainly isn't the same. tcsd seems to be running and happy. Compare this with what Steve Grubb said in Comment 5.

Here's a run of a version of rngd that I instrumented: [build@bluebird ~]$ sudo ./rngd -f -v -r /dev/NOTHING Unable to open file /dev/tpm0: Device or resource busy can't open any entropy source Maybe RNG device modules are not loaded [build@bluebird ~]$ -f: don't daemonize -v: verbose -r /dev/NOTHING: replace /dev/hwrng with a meaningless path to preven using it. According to this old page <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/rngd_default_on> Note that when using TPM, rngd currently conflicts with tcsd from TrouSerS. The solution to that is a kernel module which is probably going to be merged upstream in the 3.7 kernel, as it unfortunately missed the 3.6 merge window; however, it is a small patchset and it can be trivially backported. It should be in James Morris' linux-security git tree shortly; otherwise search for Kent Yoder on LKML. I don't know what that module is, whether my system has it, and if so, is it actually loaded. There are two loaded modules with tpm in their name: tpm_tis 20480 0 - Live 0xffffffffa033b000 tpm 40960 2 tpm_tis, Live 0xffffffffa0104000 It is even possible that the TPM is being used now. Monitoring /proc/sys/kernel/random/entropy_avail seems to show more entropy that I observed yesterday. But it isn't enough for what I'm trying to do.

Hello, I just update my firefox to 46. When I try to connect to dogpile, the javascript does not seem to be working any more. I use the option "activate", but it is not enough. I am the same issue with gmx.com What you I do ?

using rex (rexify) soes not do a command properly...
by dcw 17 May '16

17 May '16

I use Rex to maintain remote servers. Using Rex to do a upgrade on the remote server using the following commands does not work: yum -y upgrade vim-X11-2:7.4.1718-1.fc22 yum -y upgrade vim-common-2:7.4.1718-1.fc22 yum -y upgrade vim-enhanced-2:7.4.1718-1.fc22 yum -y upgrade vim-minimal-2:7.4.1718-1.fc22 Rex does a sudo for each command. Also logging in to the remote server and doing the above upgrades work as it should. I manage remote systems with both F22 and F23 and each has the same failure. All other upgrades are done correctly, it is just the ones related to vim that fail. All other commands work correctly. Any ideas on how to troubleshoot this? David

FC23 Managing printers as non root users
by Javier Perez 17 May '16

17 May '16

Hi How can I allow users to manage printers in FC23? For example if hey need to pause/resume the printer, right now they need the admin with the root password to do it. This is a home setting so I do not mind people doing it (but I do mind having to go to their rescue :) ) I tried already adding them to the lp and even created a printers group but still I get the prompt for the root user when I try to manage the print queue Thanks Is there a document that describe the printing process as applied to the FC23 environment what choices and limitations have been applied and where to look to troubleshoot stuff? Thanks -- ------------------------------ /\_/\ |O O| pepebuho(a)gmail.com ~~~~ Javier Perez ~~~~ While the night runs ~~~~ toward the day... m m Pepebuho watches from his high perch.

OT maybe? HAProxy 1.6 mail alerts getting DOWNs, but not UPs
by Mark Haney 16 May '16

16 May '16

Hey all, I've got an odd problem with HAProxy 1.6.3 that I'm not sure where to begin troubleshooting. I set up mailers for alerting when one of my DB cluster nodes changes state. I'm getting the alerts for when a node goes down (so mailing is working), but I'm not getting another one when that node comes back up. I've checked the documentation and it claims the alerts will be sent when there is a STATE change, which sounds to me like it should alert on ANY state change, up or down. Is anyone else seeing this problem? I ask this list in lieu of having to join another mailing list to ask about it in case someone here knows how to fix it. -- Mark Haney ::: Senior Systems Engineer *VIF* *International Education* P.O.

issues after updating f23 (2nd part)
by François Patte 16 May '16

16 May '16

Bonjour, The issue now is about wifi connections and usb (!!) If I plug an external usb harddrive, the wifi connection becomes awfull: I tested the rate of transfert from one computer to my updated laptop, using this: dd if=/dev/zero of=test bs=100M count=1; scp test me@laptop:/dev/null; Without any usb hdd plugged, the rate begins at 4.7MB/s and falls down to 2.4MB/s which is acceptable I think. With an usb hdd plugged (I tested with several devices), the rate quickly falls down to 100KB/s sometimes to 20KB/s and sometimes remains completely stalled. Moreover, the wifi connection is very often disconnected (even when there is no tranfert of data at all). Why do I think that it an update issue?: 1- because this behaviour did not happen before the update... 2- I have another laptop (exacttly the same, same brand, same model) which I did not update and this issue does not happen!

A curious USB anomaly
by Timothy Murphy 16 May '16

Fedora-23 does not see my USB ports, but Fedora-24 beta does: =========================== [tim@william ~]$ cat /etc/fedora-release Fedora release 24 (Twenty Four) [tim@william Tel]$ lsusb Bus 002 Device 003: ID 17ef:1003 Lenovo Integrated Smart Card Reader Bus 002 Device 002: ID 8087:0020 Intel Corp.

I used to see the USB ports under F-23. The change happened more or less when I installed F-24, though I can't see how that could have caused the USB loss. F-23 and F-24 share my /home partition, so it is conceivable that some change there could be the cause. Also the bootloader in /dev/sda presumably changed with F-24 installation I'm afraid I'm completely ignorant of USB software. I couldn't see what kernel module, if any, deals with USB. Any suggestions or elucidation gratefully received. F-24 seems to be running fine now, so it is not a critical issue. (There were some problems with kmail under F-24 originally, but I think they have been sorted out.) -- Timothy Murphy gayleard /at/ eircom.net School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin

Par2cmdline with non normal characters.
by Robin Laing 15 May '16

15 May '16

Hello, I am trying to run par2 to repair an archive that has an apostrophe in the name. Not a single quote. This archive was created on Windows. File name should be Joe’s file.part01.rar If I do ls I get Joe?s file.part01.rar ls -b I get Joe\302\222s\ file.part01.rar Running par2 *.par2 runs par2 cmdline but all the files are missing and par2 says all the files are missing. Target: "Joe’s file.part01.rar" - missing. Target: "Joe’s file.part02.rar" - missing. Target: "Joe’s file.part03.rar" - missing. Target: "Joe’s file.part04.rar" - missing. Doesn't see the repair files either. How can I escape these characters or run the program? I have searched for a day to see how to run this program. I have seen others ask the same question as well. Is there a way to use 'exec' or another option? I have tried to change the terminal character set with no luck or just haven't found the correct character set yet. I cannot rename the files as the par2 and repair files look for the original file names. I don't even know how to enter the characters in the terminal. I notice if I look at the file name in a graphics file manager (dolphin), I just get a square with some unreadable code in it. Same if I try to look at it in a directory listing from a program. Am I missing a font set for this and would that make it work better. As I cannot confirm the language the file was created in, I may be missing the correct font on my system to work with it as well.

by JD 14 May '16

Can older (5-6 years old) mac desktop boot from non-mac optical media, such as windows, any linux distro, ...etc ??? In my case it doe snot boot from any non mac media. Is it a drive problem or a primary bootloader problem?
